Overview

Better Than We Believed won the Eric Hoffer Award for good reason: presuming nothing that both traditional believers and critical-thinking searchers will not find in their hearts, it presents a strikingly clear concept of faith that answers the unhappiness of people we all recognize. This sequel offers more basic questions enlightened by a faith that makes sense, and that helps to live: when anger hits, or betrayal, a life threatening illness or self-destroying addiction. In every chapter the reader is let into a personal conversation about the challenges most basic to all human lives.
